Setup Gentoo on Asus U30JC-QX010X : Part 1

Here is how to setup Gentoo on my brand new asus. Summary :

Resize partitions with gparted.
Setup minimal gentoo
Update Windows 7 boot loader

Partitioning :

Burn last GParted live iso (current is 0.5.2-9).
Enter BIOS (sup key)
Switch boot devices
Launch GParted
Remove 30 GB from D: (/dev/sda5)
Add / partition : 25 GB (/dev/sda6)
Add /home partition : 5 GB (/dev/sda7)

I don't think I need a swap partition. To install Gentoo, I followed both x64 (last updated in 2008) and x86 (updated in 2010) guides.

Boot : gentoo with fr keymap.
Set root pasword : passwd ...
Load wifi : modprobe ath9k
ln -s /etc/init.d/net.lo /etc/init.d/net.wlan0
Edit /etc/conf.d/net and /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf

Copy them from another box through a usb key or edit them from scratch with nano. /etc/conf.d/net :

modules=( "wpa_supplicant" "!iwconfig" )
wpa_supplicant_wlan0="-Dwext"

/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf :

ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=0
eapol_version=1
ap_scan=1
fast_reauth=1
network={
 ssid="freebox_essid"
 key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
 psk="secret"
 priority=20
}

Start network : /etc/init.d/net.wlan0 start
Mount partitions :

mount /dev/sda6 /mnt/gentoo
mkdir /mnt/gentoo/home
mount /dev/sda7 /mnt/gentoo/home

Set date

Stage3 :

cd /mnt/gentoo
links http://www.gentoo.org/main/en/mirrors.xml

Links keys : Download / Quit.

Got CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS from Gentoo wiki.
MAKEOPTS is cpu count plus one.

CFLAGS="-march=core2 -msse4 -mcx16 -mpopcnt -msahf -O2 -pipe"
CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
MAKEOPTS="-j5"

mirrorselect (free.fr) :

emerge mirrorselect
mirrorselect -i -o >> /etc/make.conf
mirrorselect -i -r -o >> /etc/make.conf

Chroot :

cp -L /etc/resolv.conf /mnt/gentoo/etc/
mount -t proc none /mnt/gentoo/proc
mount -o bind /dev /mnt/gentoo/dev

chroot /mnt/gentoo /bin/bash
env-update && source /etc/profile
export PS1="(chroot) $PS1"

Portage :

emerge --sync

USE="-fortran -ipv6 mmx nptl nptlonly sse sse2 unicode"

locale & time :

nano -w /etc/locale.gen

grub

grub> root (hd0,5)
grub> setup (hd0,5)

Save boot sector (to some usb key):

dd if=/dev/sda6 of=boot.grub bs=512 count=1

Reboot :

exit
umount /mnt/gentoo/dev /mnt/gentoo/proc /mnt/gentoo/home /mnt/gentoo
reboot

Update boot loader :

Steps based on this post
Copy boot.grub to C:\
Open a cmd as administrator :

C:\>bcdedit /export bcdedit-export-100513
L'opération a réussi.

C:\>bcdedit /create /d Gentoo /application BOOTSECTOR
L'entrée {4bd6ad4c-7c0c-11de-baef-deb9d273c9fa} a été correctement créée.
L'entrée {4bd6ad4d-7c0c-11de-baef-deb9d273c9fa} a été correctement créée.

description             Gentoo
locale                  fr-FR

Now you should be able to select Gentoo on next reboot. Not seen in amd64 guide :

ccache
emerge -vuD --newuse world
emerge --oneshot libtool
dispatch-conf
perl-cleaner all
python-updater

Notes :

grub menu is not visible ?!
A lot of packages need to be emerged, still.

Some hardware info is available in next post.

Elixir setup

Free a lancé le projet elixir poru développer des jeux pour freebox. Ce toolkit se base sur enlightenment mon window manager par défaut quand je retourne sur la banquise.

Pour éviter d'installer Elixir n'importe où sur ma babasse en suivant le tutorial de noob plein de ./configure && make && make install, j'ai préféré utiliser la méthode gentoo en utilisant l'overlay officiel d'enlightenment. De l'aide supplémentaire est disponible sur le wiki gentoo.

Quelques notes :

Installation de portage-2.2 (mise à jour nécessaire de package.keywords et package.unmask)
Pour chaque package du set, ajout d'une ligne =category/package-9999 ** dans package.keywords pour éviter l'erreur missing keyword.

SpiderMonkey

package.use : dev-lang/spidermonkey threadsafe

Last version of SpiderMonkey in current portage tree is 1.7.0-r1. This version does not support JSVERSION_1_8. We need to create our own ebuild for version 1.8.0.

Create a local overlay to host this ebuild :

mkdir -p /usr/local/portage/profiles/
echo "local_overlay" > /usr/local/portage/profiles/repo_name
Add at the end of /etc/make.conf :
PORTDIR_OVERLAY="${PORTDIR_OVERLAY} /usr/local/portage/"

Create spidermonkey ebuild :

mkdir -p /usr/local/portage/dev-lang/spidermonkey
cp /usr/portage/dev-lang/spidermonkey/spidermonkey-1.7.0-r1.ebuild /usr/local/portage/dev-lang/spidermonkey/spidermonkey-1.8.0.ebuild
cp -R /usr/portage/dev-lang/spidermonkey/files /usr/local/portage/dev-lang/spidermonkey/files
Edit ebuild :

SRC_URI="ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/js/${MY_P}-rc1.tar.gz"
...
#epatch "${FILESDIR}/${PN}-1.5-build.patch"
epatch "${FILESDIR}/${P}-build.patch"
